University Program Council (UPC)

Making College Life the Ultimate Experience

What is UPC?

University Program Council is responsible for organizing the social events of the campus. It allows the student body to enjoy themselves outside of class where they can relax and enjoy their college experience. Some events are more than just entertainment; they are outlets for expression and information opportunities on issues of the world, state, and campus.

What types of events can I expect to see?

UPC offers a number of events, ranging from concerts to road trips. Students have enjoyed our annual events, such as Midnight Breakfast, Drive-In Movies, trip to Six Flags, Bingo for Books, and the Back to School Bash. There will be even more events that will accommodate the student body’s needs for satisfaction and sheer entertainment.

How can I become a member?

UPC is open to anyone who wants to volunteer. This is an excellent opportunity to help plan events or apply for a committee’s director position. We’re looking for students who are motivated to make the social events at the University of Montevallo more exciting and a great experience. Volunteer applications are available in the Student Life Office in Farmer Hall.
